Carlos notes:
West Asia Conflict enters seventh day, All India Radio, 11900 kHz
Once again it’s time for another SJTJ programme!
Same old formula – a mix of (mostly) current melodic electronic based music, with at least one song you’ll likely recognise from 30 years ago & one new song from an extremely well known artist we’ve all known for over 50 years!
As always – on shortwave thanks to our wonderful SW relay partners!
Also available online – crackle free – at – www.sjtjradio.com
Happy listening!

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Jeff White (owner of WRMI), who shares the following announcement:
Here are the listings for WRMI’s Radio Mystery Theatre, produced by Martin Dawson in Prince Edward Island, Canada for April through June 2026. This program is heard each Saturday at 1300 UTC on 15770 kHz, and repeated at 11:00 pm Eastern Time Saturday on 9395 kHz and at

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor Richard Cuff, who shares an article from Seth Hettena’s Substack about the appearance of a new shortwave numbers station believed to be broadcasting in Farsi. Numbers stations–mysterious broadcasts that read sequences of numbers–have long been associated with intelligence agencies communicating with field operatives using unbreakable one-time pad encryption. According to the report, this new signal first appeared around the time of recent military strikes involving Iran and has been heard on 7910 kHz. One of our readers reported hearing it around 2:15 UTC recently.
If you capture a recording of this numbers station, please reach out as I would like to add it to the Shortwave Radio Audio Archive. Thank you!
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor Paul Jamet, who shares the following release from Radio For Peace International:
Special Broadcast for Iran — Starting March 4, 2026
Beginning March 4, 2026, RFPI will launch a daily program in Farsi, broadcasting from 5:00 AM to 5:30 AM UTC on the 15640 kHz frequency.
This new 30-minute program will provide comprehensive coverage of national and regional news. Our goal is to offer the Iranian people clear, reliable, and accessible information on the events and issues that matter most to them.
Stay tuned and spread the word!
Radio for Peace International (RFPI) has set up shop in a small house in Auros, a village in the Gironde region of France, tucked between a pharmacy and a meadow. From this town of just 600 residents, the station broadcasts in Russian via shortwave radio to counter Kremlin propaganda following the outbreak of the war in Ukraine. Using a simple mixing console, a headset, and a computer, Sylvain Clament produces his own shows three times a week, featuring a mix of news updates and special reports.
